Soy Export Sales Highlights Today’s USDA export sales report was positive for soybeans, but not so much for soymeal and soyoil. Maybe China’s stepped up buying of U.S. soy will result in large sales in coming weeks. Net soybean export sales in the week ending 7 May totaled 655,500 MT for shipment in 2019/20 and 440,000 MT for shipment in 2020/21.

Illuminating the value of technical research
On behalf of a commodity producer organization, WPI evaluated the outputs from a project that featured a $5 million investment into technical research over multiple years. WPI’s team captured the results of this extensive effort and synthesized them for presentation to the organization’s governing board; among the findings uncovered and presented for the first time was the development of genomic traits proven, via rigorous testing, to provide crop yield advantages of 50 percent or more to U.S. farmers in times of drought. Capturing measurable results from long-term efforts can be challenging. Educating clients on the dynamics of success measurement when quantifiable results are not readily available requires deep client-consultant collaboration and an ability to consider both near- and long-term client aspirations with market/policy dynamics – attributes that WPI brings to every consulting engagement.
